SHADOWED WITNESS by Angela Carlisle, Reviewed by Paula Shreckhise


The Secrets of Kincaid Series #2:
A Christian Romantic Suspense Novel with a Detective Love Interest
 
PAULA'S REVIEW:
After reading the debut by Ms. Carlisle, I just had to read this follow up and find out what happened to Allye. She saw something she was not supposed to and now someone is trying to scare her. But no one will believe her and she is starting to question herself. She is facing an undiagnosed health issue and does not want to burden her friends or family. Church friend Detective Eric Thornton tends to believe her when some things come to light and he strives to solve the mystery.
 
This is a well paced, intriguing story that kept me guessing. I read it in record time because I had to see how things would play out.
 
Lots of interesting twists and turns to ponder. Allye and Eric struggled with spiritual implications and practical ones, too, deciding to trust God completely, no matter what. They saw that God can use the worst of situations to help them grow. Eric was a great hero who was capable and showed a caring side when it came to foster kids. The romance was well crafted and respectful.
 
Recommended for fans of Lynette Eason, Elizabeth Goddard, and Dani Pettrey.

BackCover Blurb:

A haunting attack. A killer in the shadows. A protective love.

Murder--that's what photographer Allye Jessup knows she witnessed as she departed her studio one evening. Waking with bruises on her neck and a foggy memory, she believes she survived an attack, but everyone seems to think she simply sustained a head injury from falling down the stairs outside her studio. Plagued by an undiagnosed health condition, she is torn between the haunting reality of what she may have seen and the possibility that her mind is playing tricks on her.

Without proof the other victim ever existed, Detective Eric Thornton can hardly declare the area a murder scene. Still, he adds Allye's report to his already full caseload. But when new evidence surfaces to support her claims, Eric must stay one step ahead of a ruthless killer and uncover the truth before the suspect closes in on Allye again.
